This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

Time goes by so quickly. It’s hard to believe that tomorrow marks the first anniversary of Holly’s passing. I wanted to say to her family, friends, loved ones and Holly herself if she’s looking down and keeping an eye on us, that she’s not forgotten and never will be. She gave so much to so many and had such a special way about her. I didn't have to meet her in person to know that -- it shined through her words during the time she spent here with us.
Miss you Peekaboo. Peace.
Cheryle

Thanks for posting this Needled.

I am still so sad about Holly (Peekaboo)
I still have all her messages to me in my inbox:( I will never erase them.

We all miss you Holly

R.I.P. Peekaboo.

I am so glad you posted this. I came to this board after Holly was gone, but I think I have read most of what she wrote. She was a beautiful, caring soul.
Rest in Peace, Holly.

Thanks for remembering the date, Cheryl. So hard to believe it's been a year.

I came to TiMS after Holly was gone, but I thought the date is aug 14 per jerkbutt's post:

I came late to Tims and didn't have the pleasure of "meeting" Holly. But I am saddened by her loss, all the same. May she rest in peace.

Wishing her family and all who knew Holly peace, strength and comfort.

I kept all her messages in my inbox too, and her # in my phone, and am proud to bump my thread started by her. We were gonna chat more soon as she got home from Stanford :..(

Real gem of a lady, sorely missed.

She was a true pioneer. So sad that it turned out the way it did. She could've been any one of us.

This made me tear up this morning. Holly was so inspirational to me in terms of making my decision. Us early birds at Stanford just had each other for a little bit there until this took off and she was like such a supportive, positive person. I miss her and her killer attitude.
